28 years later, Auburn woman gets stolen ring back

AUBURN, Maine — A woman’s high school class ring is back in her possession 28 years after it was stolen.

Michelle Bilodeau, of Auburn, hadn’t seen her Edward Little High School class of 1983 ring since it was stolen during her junior year.

But on Friday, it was returned to her by a stranger who tracked her down on Facebook.

Angie Foster, of Benton, told the Sun Journal she found the ring years ago at a roller skating rink in Winslow. She held onto it and at one point called the high school to figure out who had the initials “MMB” that were engraved on the inside of the band.

It took years to find Bilodeau. It wasn’t until Foster looked for her on Facebook that the search paid off.
